We showed up shortly before they closed, but Dee welcomed us anyway, telling the story of the vineyard and how her family came to own the property. Our dog was welcomed in, as well. We had a lovely time sampling delicious reds!!

This is a hidden gem. Located off 29 in the Barboursville area
Realtively small winery and tasting room though definately NOT small on flavor or quality
Michael helped us in the tasting room with a guided flight of 5 whites and 4 reds. He was personable and knowledgeable about the wines and winery.
We really enjoyed the wines and bought several to bring home! The wines had good structure, nice body and strong finish.
Indoor and outdoor seating.

The entire visit from start to end was extremely pleasant and memorable. We were greeted by two corgis who enjoyed pets and belly rubs. We tasted a variety of wines and enjoyed the complimentary biscuit with strawberry jam. The conversation, individual attention, and teacher discount was much appreciated. We bought a few bottles and have marked this winery as one of our favorites.

Excellent wines! I've been to wineries all over California, and Reynard Florence was the best wine tasting experience I've ever had! I'm not a sommelier, but I can tell a quality wine and these were exceptional!
Favorite white: Viognier
Favorite red: Petit Verdot (hard choice as I loved their Merlot as well)Cozy tasting room right next to their sloping vineyard. The welcoming committee of 2 friendly Corgis greeted us upon alighting from our vehicle, and Michael served us with graciously with delicious wines, pleasant conversation, and helpful local knowledge.
We bought a bottle of Viognier and enjoyed it on their shaded, open air deck overlooking the vineyard and lush green valley. They provided us glasses and an insulated wine holder which we happily returned to the tasting room.
It was warm, sunny and splendid May afternoon!

True hidden gem! Beautiful location and a real small winery. The wine maker was amazing and chatted with us through our whole tasting explaining the wines. Also a great deal trying 8 wines for $15.
Must see spot! Will be back!
